Given that this is a Windows-specific problem, couldn't the fallback
be that make switches over to native calls (FindXXXFile or
QueryDirectory or whatever) to read the problem directory? Or even
fork a shell and run "dir"? That would be ugly and a lot of work but
it might be the only real fix for the problem, which I gather is rare.
In fact maybe this search could always use the native API instead of
opendir/readdir?
